I have taken the liberty of posting a link to this post on my Facebook wall – hope you don’t mind. I wanted to let my friends have an impression of this course I have been talking so much about. I, too, loved the complexity and ‘realness’ of the assignments.

Think I’ll take a break after this one though. Doing two courses back-to-back was a little ambitious

Thanks very much. And thanks for all your help over the eight weeks – one thing I should’ve mentioned was that it was good to have a few people around the office also doing the course. The forums were okay, when I thought to check them, but it’s not the same as talking through the topics in person.

Thanks! And you should. They’re suprisingly effective, and I can’t see the Education budget at work returning any time soon ;-)

I think I will try some of their courses – they look very interesting.

I need to write something about my experience with this course too over on my blog. You’ve covered a lot of the details of how the course was run but It’s interesting reading for me as my experience, while largely the same, was subtly different. I’ll try to capture that in my post some time soon!
